kinda the same shock and spring but u can adjust the height. so if u want to take pics and slam it to the ground u can or if its winter u can raise it up so u dont scrape ur car from ice and snow. or u can put it at a perfect height for comfort and style

On some C/O's you can also adjust dampening, etc... its is a good system to have if you track your car occasionally.
Shocks/springs are more fiscally feasible for most of us - since having adjustability is really a non issue.
